DC-9-32 Is Latest Team Charter Flight to St. Louis Downtown Airport

By Carmelo Turdo

The Aero Experience Exclusive:Recently, there has been a flurry of charter flights arriving at St. Louis Downtown Airport, bringing in a variety of new aircraft types. Airport Director, Bob McDaniel, has recently commented, "Now, with our recently widened and improved runway, visiting sports teams can enjoy that same close proximity and easy in and out travel. We’ve seen a growing number of Boeing 737’s, 757’s, Airbuses and MD-80s bringing hockey, baseball and football teams to St. Louis through our airport. We’re proud to provide this new capability to our customers and the region."
